As a graduate instructor, it was very much a trial by fire experience, and I felt like a complete fuck-up pretty much 24/7. But when the evals came back, they were (for the most part) pretty average. Not great, not horrible. I think I had two students who ever mentioned any criticism (one of which I would have argued was false). So, I try not to sweat them so much.

There is an online e-textbook, an online interactive textbook, a (physical) reader, and an online discussion board where I facilitate the interactions between students regarding the material. We don't do anything live -- it would be way too complicated because there are advanced placement high schoolers who are earning dual-credit. So, yes, it's self-paced within the restrictions of the deadlines I set for their assignments.
